Equipment
RHD. An old restoration which has been displayed and infrequently used in the Albert Mansion collection in France for 40 years and shows its age with an assortment of chips, nicks and blemishes. Decent new cloth upholstery. Nothing physically wrong, however, making it an excellent Brighton eligible driver.
Market commentary
This Renault is a good example of the recent strength of mid market antiques and brass. A new generation of enthusiasts seems to be recognizing the charm and originality of these old beasts and their prices have strengthened recently although theyre still within reach of a large number of collectors. This is a relatively cheap admission ticket for the Brighton Runs annual Ritual of Bodily Mortification and Trial by Exposure.
